Cardiac Puncture Serum

Cardiac puncture serum is the liquid fraction of blood collected by cardiac puncture and processed for laboratory analysis, providing a concentrated source of circulating proteins, antibodies, hormones, and other biomolecules. After blood is withdrawn from the heart, it is allowed to clot and then centrifuged to separate serum from the cellular and clotting components. In neuroscience research, this material supports analysis of blood-based biomarkers, immune signals, and treatment-related changes in animal models, helping researchers relate systemic physiology to neural function and disease. Proper collection and processing are essential because handling conditions can influence serum composition and the reliability of downstream biochemical or immunological assays.

2017

This work describes a nanoimprinting lithography method to fabricate high-quality sensing arrays that work on the principle of extraordinary optical transmission. The biosensor is low-cost, robust, easy to use, and can detect cardiac troponin I in serum at clinically relevant concentrations (99th percentile cutoff ∼10-400 pg/mL, depending on the assay).

2013

Measuring biomarkers in complex biological samples is increasingly guiding clinical decision-making. We describe a highly sensitive method to simultaneously measure cardiac myosin binding protein-C, creatine kinase MB, and cardiac troponin I in serum samples from subjects with myocardial infarction and healthy control subjects.

Isolation of Endothelial Progenitor Cells from Healthy Volunteers and Their Migratory Potential Influenced by Serum Samples After Cardiac Surgery
